Here are some seeds:

• Thoughts about "March"
• Thoughts about "Adolescence"

• Isabella Stewart Gardner vs. Contemporary Curation
• I like coffee that still tastes good after it cools
• Code is more like a recipe than a poem
• Why LLMs would work better, culturally, if we didn't call them "AI"
• Couples who sit next to each other when alone at a four top
